Star Tissue UK is celebrating being chosen as one of the top 1,000 companies to ‘inspire Europe’, according to a report by the London Stock Exchange Group.
The Blackburn-based family-owned business has been highlighted as one of the fastest growing and most dynamic small and medium-sized enterprises in the UK and Europe.
Star Tissue UK’s managing director Khalid Saifullah was a guest at the launch of the ‘1,000 Companies To Inspire Europe 2017’ report at the five-star Sofitel Hotel in Brussels.
A spokesman for London Stock Exchange Group, who commissioned the report, said: “The criteria to reach the final 1,000 is very challenging. A company must have shown an exceptional financial performance and fast growth in rate of turnover over a three-year period.”
Mr. Saifullah said: “We are delighted to be recognised as one of Europe’s most inspiring and high-growth businesses. It’s a magnificent accolade for Star Tissue to be included in the exclusive report and is a testament to our workforce in Blackburn for providing a fantastic product and service which has enabled the company to again outperform the growing hygiene paper market.
“Our continued investment enables us to improve our manufacturing and service capabilities, ensuring we continue to meet the growing demands of our diverse customer base. We are honoured to be up among the elite of Europe and look forward to continuing our growth ahead of the hygiene paper market.”
